Naruto, what kind of Hokage would you be if you didn't roll around!

"Well, but..."

Itachi Uchiha sensed the aura of the Three-Tails in his Sharingan.

But there were at least seven or eight other powerful chakras nearby.

Kisame Hoshigaki understood immediately: "He's not alone..."

"But there's nothing we can do. We can't stay in hiding forever. Such opportunities are fleeting."

"How is it, Mr. Itachi?"

"Action?"

Itachi Uchiha took a deep breath.

Then, he nodded.

Kisame Hoshigaki chuckled coldly, his hand already gripping the hilt of his greatsword Samehada.

As the raindrops brought the figure into view...

It is precisely the reflection of the water that illuminates the beauty of the underworld.

Beside him were ninjas from Kirigakure, including Ao, Ao, Gonbei, and Chukichi.

Mei Terumi, wearing a Mizukage hat, stepped forward and gazed at the two formidable enemies before her.

"I see."

"Kisame Hoshigaki, who defected from the village and took the Samehada sword with him..."

"And Itachi Uchiha, who slaughtered the Uchiha clan?"

Uchiha Itachi calmly replied, "Lord Mizukage."

Ao coldly said, "Hmph, Kisame Hoshigaki, it was you who broke through the defensive barrier and sneaked in, wasn't it?"

"Unfortunately, we underestimated the village's ability to sense things."

Kisame Hoshigaki chuckled and said, "Is it the Byakugan?"

"And Mr. Nakaji is here too..."

"No wonder it was exposed so quickly."

Ao's Byakugan's perception is beyond question, and Nakaji is also a sensory ninja, and quite powerful at that.

Kisame Hoshigaki glanced at Itachi Uchiha.

"It seems we have no choice but to fight, Mr. Itachi."

Itachi Uchiha nodded indifferently: "Let's finish this quickly."

Kisame Hoshigaki understood his meaning; dragging it out would only allow Kirigakure's reinforcements to arrive.

then--

Without hesitation, he quickly formed hand seals.

"Water Release: Exploding Water Wave!"

Suddenly, a massive amount of water spewed from Kisame Hoshigaki's mouth, rushing towards Mei Terumi and her group through the streets. The terrifying range and scale instantly engulfed several streets, submerging the buildings and turning them into a huge lake!

Mei Terumi and the others reacted quickly, each defending themselves, and then landed on the surface of the lake, where they rippled gently with the wind and waves.

"As expected of a tailless tailed beast, its chakra reserves are quite terrifying."

Mei Terumi gave a word of praise, but she was equally ruthless in her attack.

"Water escape! Water dragon bullet!"

Her chakra reserves are also impressive. In the original work, it took an entire Water Release team to counter Madara Uchiha's Great Fire Annihilation, but Mei Terumi was able to break through it all by herself. This shows just how enormous her chakra reserves are!

Not to mention, Mei Terumi is still the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails, and her chakra level has increased dramatically once again.

This seemingly ordinary Water Dragon Bullet technique instantly transformed into a gigantic azure dragon in her hands, baring its fangs and roaring as it hurtled and shot fiercely towards Kisame Hoshigaki!

Kisame Hoshigaki's eyes lit up: "Okay."

"Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique!"

Suddenly, huge shark-shaped water cannons appeared on the water's surface. They were also extremely large and had a wide range, and they retaliated against Mei Terumi's water dragon bullets.

The two powerful water-style techniques clashed violently.

Rumbling--

Boom! ! !

The lake instantly became turbulent, and the surrounding houses and buildings collapsed and shattered into pieces due to the aftershocks!

In terms of Water Release techniques, the two people in front of us are undoubtedly the strongest in the ninja world today!

The outcome of this battle will determine who wins and who loses.

During the fierce battle between Mei Terumi and Kisame Hoshigaki.

The others immediately launched a fierce attack on Uchiha Itachi.

"Water Release! Kirigakure's Jutsu!"

Qing activated the Mist Concealment Technique, turning the surrounding rain and lakes into a pervasive mist that grew increasingly dense, obscuring all vision.

Itachi Uchiha knew that he wanted to use this move to block the vision of his Sharingan.

Although the Sharingan can still detect the enemy's movements by the color of chakra.

However, his most proficient illusion technique requires eye contact to release, which means it is now being hindered.

Both Ao possesses the Byakugan and Nakaji has incredibly powerful sensory abilities, allowing them to lead their teams to continue attacking him.

Uchiha Itachi secretly praised them, saying that Kirigakure had clearly made preparations and conducted rehearsals in advance.

"Water escape! Water prison technique!"

The lake beneath Itachi Uchiha's feet suddenly exploded!

A giant water sphere is formed instantly, and once bound, it is difficult to break free by one's own strength.

However, Itachi Uchiha reacted with lightning speed, immediately leaping back and successfully dodging the attack.

However, at the same time, four enemy figures appeared simultaneously from the four directions: front, back, left, and right!

Moreover, they all used the same ninjutsu.

"Water Release! Water Whip!"

This is a ninjutsu that the Hidden Mist Anbu are skilled in. It uses water-style chakra to create a whip to bind and restrict the enemy's movements. Once the whip is fully formed, the enemy cannot break free.

Four water whips appeared simultaneously, sealing off all of Itachi Uchiha's positions.

bang bang bang-

After a few soft sounds, Itachi Uchiha's body was firmly bound!

The four were overjoyed: "We succeeded!"

However, just as they were about to get close enough to capture the enemy, Qing suddenly cried out in surprise.

"careful!"

The next moment—

Boom! ! !

Itachi Uchiha's body suddenly exploded!

Four Hidden Mist Anbu ninjas were blasted away by the violent explosion. The attack was so close that they had no time to dodge and instantly collapsed to the ground, coughing up blood.

At this moment, Itachi Uchiha's true form reappeared from beneath the water.

"That is……"

"A water clone?!"

"Not only can it lure the enemy and help them evade attacks, but it can also trigger such a terrifying explosion?!"

This move is Itachi Uchiha's clone explosion, which is indeed a rather insidious and vicious ninjutsu.

In the original work, Kurenai Yuhi was almost hit by this move.

Fortunately, Kakashi noticed in time and saved her.

In the blink of an eye, four elite ANBU members were killed by Itachi Uchiha.

Zhongji and Qing exchanged a glance, both sensing how formidable the enemy was.

Uchiha Itachi said indifferently, "You can't possibly defeat me."

Even so, Chuji and the others knew that they had to find a way to hold off Uchiha Itachi, otherwise the Mizukage and the Three-Tails would be in danger.

Moreover, as long as this drags on, reinforcements will definitely arrive soon.

Such a large-scale battle could not possibly go unnoticed by others.

But Itachi Uchiha was well aware of this as well.

His hands were hidden in his sleeves, forming hand seals so that the enemy could not detect them at all.

The next moment—

bang bang bang! ! !

Several swirling water jets suddenly shot out simultaneously!

Ao, Bi, Quanbingwei, and Zhongji were all taken aback and immediately retreated to avoid the attack.

But before they could even get a foothold, an even bigger attack was already waiting for them.

It was as if Itachi Uchiha had completely predicted the direction in which they would retreat!

"Water Release: Water Fang Bullet Technique!"

The spinning water jet transformed into a sharp water gun, hurtling towards the backs of the four people!

All four were caught off guard and were violently blasted away by the water gun.

Just as he was about to struggle, a blood-red Sharingan light appeared in front of Ao's eyes!

"That is……"

"Oops!"

Before he could react, his will was completely sealed into the world of illusion.

His body felt as if it had been nailed to death by giant iron nails in an instant!

Can't move!

"This is...an illusion?!"

This move was Itachi Uchiha's Shackles Technique, which he used in the original work to defeat Orochimaru and force him to leave the Akatsuki organization.

Even Orochimaru couldn't withstand it, let alone these ordinary Jonin.

In an instant, the four so-called elites of Kirigakure were all controlled by Itachi Uchiha.

He raised his head, took off his straw hat, and let the rain beat down on his body.

Behind the gradually dissipating mist in the distance, Mei Terumi and Kisame Hoshigaki were locked in a fierce battle.

Kisame Hoshigaki activated Rain Shark, sending four enormous water shark projectiles hurtling toward Mei Terumi.

Mei Terumi refused to be outdone and directly used Water Release: Water Pillar to defend, which actually suppressed Kisame Hoshigaki for a time.

however.

When Mei Terumi saw Itachi Uchiha standing on the other side, her heart sank!

"Qing and Zhongji's men, along with the elite of the Anbu, were actually defeated in such a short time..."

"Just how strong is that Uchiha Itachi?!"

The situation immediately plummeted.

Mei Terumi is now fighting two against one.

Kisame Hoshigaki is already difficult enough to deal with, but with Itachi Uchiha added to the mix, Mei Terumi has absolutely no chance of winning!
